Level Headed

Level Headed is a 1978 album by Britishrock band Sweet. The album features "Love is Like Oxygen", the band's last original single to hit the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, peaking at #8 in the United States and #9 in the UK Singles Chart. A second single, "California Nights", was released from the album but only reached #78 in the UK.

This was the last album to feature the "classic" Sweet line-up of Brian Connolly, Andy Scott, Mick Tucker and Steve Priest. Shortly after its release, Connolly left the band to embark on a solo career. The remaining trio continued as Sweet and delivered three more albums before breaking up in 1982.
